Ark: Survival Ascended: All Scorched Earth Dino locations

The Scorched Earth DLC brings some of Ark‘s best dinosaurs and creatures to ASA.

That said, with all the map modifications, new caves, and artifacts, it’s easy to lose track of where each dinosaur spawns in Scorched Earth in Ark: Survival Ascended. After all, this once-barren desert now includes lush trees, making some areas recognizable. In this guide, I’ll list every major creature in this expansion and where you can find it on the map.
